How Old Are the Cultural Roots of Anglo-American Liberty? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In my younger days I was more sanguine about the ease of transplanting classical liberalism upon foreign soil. For did not our Declaration of Independence state that ALL men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights? Did not Winthrop proclaim us to be the “city upon a hill” as an example to the world, and did not Lincoln say we were “the last best hope of earth? Then in later years I recalled the lessons my gentleman-farmer dad taught me in the Massachusetts
Daniel Morgan: The 'Rebel Without a Cause' Who Twice Turned the Tide of the Revolution (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Daniel Morgan was a hard case from the start. He ran away from home at 17 after a fight with his father, finally settling in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. He cleared land, ran a sawmill, and eventually built up a successful business as a teamster. As such, he was hired by the British army during the French and Indian War, accompanying Gen.

What Separates Conservatives From Progressives? Disposition Toward Power (opens the original)
Read excerpt
First, let us define terms. An conservative seeks to conserve the principles of our founding.

The concept is to highlight the repair as part of the history of the object, rather than disguise it. It is part of a wider class of aesthetics known as wabi-sabi. This term is difficult to translate because it is quite subjective. Wabi might be described as beauty in simplicity or austerity. Sabi refers to rust, as a reminder that all is transitory and fades
Our Founders Had Their Own Version of X: Pamphlets! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What do we mean by the Revolution? The war? That was no part of the Revolution; it was only an effect and a consequence of it. The Revolution was in the minds of the people, and this was effected, from 1760 to 1775, in the course of fifteen years before a drop of blood as shed at Lexington. The records of thirteen legislatures, the pamphlets, newspapers in all the colonies, ought to be consulted during that period to ascertain the steps by which the public opinion was enlightened and informed co
